A few weeks ago, the girls and I volunteered for a Keep Bellevue Clean event. I've been eyeing all the trash on the highway and on major streets so when I saw this pop up as a community event, I was eager to go. We walked around a high trafficked corridor (altho very little traffic was there so early on a Sat morning!) with bright yellow vests and garbage grabbers in our hands, and picked up all the trash we saw along the way. The girls had so much fun that we went way over the estimated time for the event and were the last group to return. I recall enjoying doing similar events as a kid when we did graffiti or beach cleanups, so I'm glad the girls are getting into it too. Now if only I could figure out how to clean the freeways.
Goodness, it's already 2025! It's been a really long time since we posted! We had a very lazy new year. We flew back from LA on the evening of the 31st so spent the last remaining hours of 2024 cozying up on the couch and then fell asleep before it even hit midnight! On New Years day, we slept in, cleaned up the house and then did a quick hike the next day. All in all, a good start to the year! Nora's new blanket hoodie. Cold and muddy trails. We're not in LA anymore! We hiked the Primrose trail that follows Coal Creek.
